Stillborn babies in Peebles
« on: Monday 15 August 11 20:32 BST (UK) »
I am trying to help someone who has asked me if we can trace where the still born babies were buried in the town of Peebles between 1950 and 1955.  She is trying to trace the burial site of her stillborn sister.
Many thanks in anticipation.

Contact the Scottish Borders Council office in Peebles - more info at  http://www.scotborders.gov.uk/life/livingandsocialcare/death/graveyardsandburials/index.html

If burial records still exist, they will have them
